Decision made

[SunshineBossaNova]

I've posted on here under various poster names about my marriage. My DH is an alcoholic and I'm struggling to cope. I'm a third year student and his behaviour sabotages my work.

I am finally out of limbo - I have decided to leave him. It's going to be hard but I am excited about my new life. I know I can have a better life without him and I will do what is necessary to move forward and pass my degree.

Thank you for all of your advice and support.

Glad you've seen the light before you wasted more time. You will not believe just how good your life can be without the millstone of someone else's alcoholism dragging you down.

Well done.
Your life will be so much better without him in it.
I hope you manage to get out quickly and live you life to the fullest.

You've made decision - that is the most important part.
Have you told him yet?
Can you just move out or do you need to wait until you find suitable accommodation?

I haven't told him yet. Selfishly, I'm waiting until I've handed in my dissertation in May. His drinking seems to get worse around my deadlines.

However, if the next couple of weeks are bad I'll get a room temporarily so I can study, then come back for the rest of my stuff later.

Good idea not to worry too much about finding permanent place. You need to concentrate on your studies not and is not that long before your studies are over.
I bet you feel as if a big weight fell off your chest!

I agree to focus on your studies. May is not that far away. It's always easier to put up with shit when you can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm so sorry to read this, but so glad to hear you've made the decision, because it does (sadly) sound like the right one. You are too good for this.
